At Ironcode Gaming, we are hard at work on Pahelika: Revelations – the sequel to our hit casual game, Pahelika: Secret Legends. And what is more, we have some screenshots to show!
It is early days yet, but we are really excited at how the game is shaping up. This game is going to be bigger, better and more fun than our previous one! After the release of our previous game, we spent a lot of time checking out all the reviews to seek ways of improving it. We also took into account suggestions from players and their feedback has helped us a lot in designing this game.
The story continues from where Pahelika: Secret Legends left off. As the player, you will square off against an ancient and terrible foe. This foe is treacherous indeed, but you will find that the biggest danger comes not from outside, but from within yourself!
The story of Pahelika: Revelations is full of intrigue and surprises, and it even throws light on some of the questions left unanswered in the previous game! We have upped the game resolution to bring you better and sharper graphics, we’ve got better and flashier cutscenes, and the game will have many more locations to visit!
If you liked Pahelika: Secret Legends, then this is one game you don’t want to miss!
We were at the Nasscom’s Animation and gaming summit this year, mostly to see how the gaming bigwigs look like. Most of them looked pretty good, considering how big their wigs were. Jokes apart, most of the people there were quite young, including the suits! I suppose that’s because the gaming industry in india is in a pretty nascent stage.
Anyway, Pallav, our CEO, was a speaker at the summit. He gave a talk at the summit on how we overcame money & manpower constraints to make the runaway casual game hit, Pahelika. There is some coverage of the talk here:

All in all, it was a great event, and it was nice meeting dynamic people like Rajesh and Anand. I think we will be attending the next summit too. Just in case you are wondering, the booze that freely flowed at the summit has nothing whatsoever to do with this decision. Nope. Nothing at all.
Our crazy tank shooter game, Last Man Standing has been updated to version 1.5. We have made heavy graphics improvements, fixed some bugs, and updated the gameplay logic. The result is a game that looks, sounds and plays better than ever before. Get it here!
Keeping in tune to the demands of the audience we are going to launch our very own forums soon, keep looking back for more updates.
The folks at Gamezebo have done a very fair review of Pahelika here. Here is the summary:
If you’re a fan of adventure games, but not of their tendency to be punishingly difficult, definitely give Pahelika a try. It’s no pushover, but the concessions it makes to ensuring you have everything you need to succeed make it a more welcoming adventure experience.
And that’s not all. They went ahead and posted an excellent walkthrough for Pahelika: Secret Legends. You can find it here.
Pahelika has just been reviewed over at http://www.gamesetter.com. The review is in german, but they were kind enough to give me a translation. As always, here is a (translated) summary:
But even though Pahelika: Secret Legends doesn’t bring any new in gameplay or puzzles, nothing innovative, beside the minor minus points, it is a great game, that should stand with head ups next to Azada and other puzzle/inventory based games. It has a decent length (even though the end came as a surprise). A little more polishing here and there would have been nice, but that does not take away any of the fun while playing. For fans of puzzle games, for those, like to use their brains, Pahelika: Secret Legends is more than worth the download.
Although I do slightly disagree that Pahelika: Secret Legends doesn’t have new or innovative gameplay, I can’t disagree with the overall praise
